My MakerBot: Print From Your Browser

Makerbot is now offering cloud-based 3D printing with the new My MakerBot. This in-browser platform connects your networked 3D printers, Thingiverse accounts, orders and support cases all in one place.

You can upload, prepare files, print and then monitor their progress from any device, anywhere. This is an important new tool for schools because My MakerBot will broaden student access to 3D printers in Chromebook classrooms and makes it easier for educators to manage their use.

In addition to offering broader access and simpler use, MakerBot collaborated with Autodesk Tinkercad to connect the popular K-12 design software directly to My MakerBot. This means that students will be able to 3D design in Tinkercad then export designs to My MakerBot and 3D print them without ever leaving their web browsers.

By connecting two powerful STEM learning tools, MakerBot are empowering educators so that they can equip their students with critical problem skills.
